Early mornin'
(Alright, I was out a little last night)
(Got a little messy)
Early mornin'
(I can't be like that anymore)
(No)

I was shaking my ass in the streets 'til mornin'
Just walked in and it's early mornin' (uh)
Bump, bump 'til the break of dawn and
It don't stop 'til the early mornin'
Passed out on the couch, I'm yawnin'
Just walked in and it's early mornin' (passed out again)
Bump, bump 'til the break of dawn and
It don't stop 'til the early mornin'

Met a dark dude, kinda dark hair
When he walked up, Tony grabbed him
But I liked him, told him, "Come here"
Kinda cool, baby, we can make plans
Where you live? Do your mama live there?
We can hook up at the hotel
He was down, so I told him, "Let's go"
What happened next, guess what? You don't wanna know

I was shaking my ass in the streets 'til mornin' (yeah)
Just walked in and it's early mornin' (uh)
Bump, bump 'til the break of dawn and
It don't stop 'til the early mornin'
Passed out on the couch, I'm yawnin'
Just walked in and it's early mornin'
Bump, bump 'til the break of dawn and
It don't stop 'til the early mornin'

I went out with my girl Jen (yeah)
And we called up Gabe and his friends
He was talking 'bout hittin' up show
So I said, "What the hell, let's go"
Got up and got on the dance floor
Hooked up with a guy named Joe
When the music was fast and slow
What happened next, guess what? You don't wanna know

I was shaking my ass in the streets 'til mornin' (yeah)
Just walked in and it's early mornin'
Bump, bump 'til the break of dawn and
It don't stop 'til the early mornin'
Passed out on the couch, I'm yawnin'
Just walked in and it's early mornin'
Bump, bump 'til the break of dawn and
It don't stop 'til the early mornin'

Call all your boys (call all your boys)
Call all your girls (are you gonna call your girls? Call all your girls)
Call all your friends (yeah)
Let's do it again (yeah)
Let's do it again, let's do it again

Yes (can't keep, can't keep doing this, early mornin')
Yes (can't keep doing this)
I'll light your fire, your one desire
Pull on me, baby, and I'll take you higher
Wanna get with you
You should try her
So come over here and let's go some- (oh-whoa)

I was shaking my ass in the streets 'til mornin'
Just walked in and it's early mornin'
Bump, bump 'til the break of dawn and
It don't stop 'til the early mornin'
Passed out on the couch, I'm yawnin'
Just walked in and it's early mornin' (oh)
Bump, bump 'til the break of dawn and
It don't stop 'til the early mornin'

Call all your boys
Call all your girls
Call all your friends
Let's do it again
(Let's do it again, let's do it)

Early mornin'
Early mornin'

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
